5. San Antonio at Memphis (7 p.m., Tuesday, Fox Sports Southwest): The Spurs were tested before escaping with a comeback over the Grizzlies Sunday night. Memphis needs a statement win here to boost their playoff hopes.

GAMES TO AVOID:

1. Toronto vs. New Jersey at London (2 p.m. Friday): Didn’t the good people of England suffer enough in World War II? Why is David Stern subjecting them to this game?

2. Toronto vs. New Jersey at London (2 p.m. Saturday): Only thing worse that one Nets-Raptors game. How about two in two days?

3. Minnesota at Washington (6 p.m. Saturday): Both these teams have five-game losing streaks heading to the week’s games. So something will probably have to give in this Saturday night snoozer.

4. Los Angeles Clippers at Sacramento (9 p.m. Monday): Two of the Western Conference’s three worst teams will meet in a game that will test how much Sacramento fans really want the NBA.

5. Minnesota at Detroit (6:30 p.m., Wednesday): Kevin Love and Co. visit the Pistons, a once-proud franchise that has become a laughing stock around the league.
